the sun is the only star closest to earth
it has so much power it could blind you perminently
it also has so much power it could power citys with solar panels
we can also tell the time with it using shadows when your shadow is the biggest it could be the afternoon or the morning, mid day is when you cant see your shadow
a tool we use for this is called a sun dial
the sun is also a good source for vitamin D and it helps plants grow and without plants there is no life
all life leads back to the sun.
